1 FIGURE Typical spatial organization of microtubules, stress fibers (one form of microfilaments), and intermediate filaments.

2 FIGURE The microtubule organizing center or centrosome consists of amorphous material enclosing a pair of centrioles.

3 FIGURE Microfilaments and microtubules in fibroblasts grown in culture. The green shows microtubules radiating out from the microtubule organizing center while the red shows actin. (A) In this flattened cell the actin is organized as stress fibers. (B) In this rounded cell the actin is organized as a loose meshwork under the plasma membrane. The blue color is Hoechst staining and shows the nucleus. Ima-ges by Professor David Becker, University College London; used with permission.
